Sponsor Giveaways: Digital Scrapbook Memories, The Vintage Pearl, & Blueberry Freckles

Right now I am being inspired by spring coming. Birds chirping woke me up this morning!

Wow, to have a baby girl....Anna is so precious, Ali.
What's inspiring me lately? Jewelry making idea books. The color combinations, sometimes monochromatic, sometimes seasonal. I know it's all been in paper collections already, but somehow, seeing it all in a different medium just gives me new ideas for projects.

I'm inspired by the bravery of my children, overcoming fears and inhibitions and stepping out of their comfort zones to try new things. I'm trying to capture these memories...for each of them to look back on someday, and for me, so that when they're grown, I can remember each moment and milestone!

I recently discovered kelly+olive (an online interior decorating firm). Their work is so fresh and personalized and and happily use Ikea and Target products! Check out the awesome mood boards at their site.

The designs and writing at inchmark (http://inchmark.squarespace.com/inchmark/) have been inspiring me lately!

What has been inspiring me lately is photography. I'm currently taking Jessica Spragues photo editing class -and all I can say is WOW! It's completely opened up my eyes to making my photo's look top notch. It then makes me want to take more photos!!

Just checking out different people's blogs and see what they are working on.

The weather is inspiring me. I love this time of year. Everything is starting to bloom, the sun is out, and doesn't get dark as soon so the days feel longer. I have lost a few pounds and have more energy as well.

I'm a new knitter and I'm being inspired by the group over at Ravelry.com. I am spending many a moment drooling over their skills and yarns and patterns. So inspiring!

I am inspired by the season of spring - the crocus are popping their little purple heads into the sun, the daffodils are pushing their way into the world, the koi fish are coming out of hibernation, the baby bunnies are hopping all over the field across the street the primroses are in full bloom - the world is inspiring and a joyful place ~~~ thank you for another great give away !

Ive been inspired by the blue of my children's eyes lately. They both have a crystal pure blue eye color and I LOVE it.

Hi Ali,
Congrats on the birth of Anna, she is beautiful. I have been in awe of all the programs and support that is available to adoptive families. We have finalized our son's adoption and we are just as happy as can be.

Thanks for hosting these amazing giveaways! Lately I've really been inspired by the weather... it's finally starting to warm up a bit! I've started my spring cleaning already by clearing out a bunch of clutter and it feels great :) -Sharyn

Lately I've been getting a lot of color inspiration from the Pottery Barn catalogs. Love them!

as always my crazy son and all of his babiness...still love all of his stages!

I am inspired by all the people I see around me who are trying to become better people. There is hope in this world!

I am inspired by all the cookbooks I've been reading lately, and dying to try all the versions of carrot cake there are - yum!

My shoes...but not just any shoes...my running shoes. You see for over ten years they sat...calling my name, desiring that I wear them for the purpose of which they were made yet I ignored them until this year.
And now these running shoes propel my body forward to running my first half marathon in May.
What a ride they provide.

I have been inspired by this short video clip on women's inherent desire to create.

Oh, I would love to be entered! :)
I am inspired by Spring...the light colors are getting me into an airy pastel mood...
